Message:: [QUOTE="19Lyds, post: 2276534, member: 15929"]Polishing and Abrading are synonomous. Perhaps you can find an 1982 No FG at MS63 for under $20 but no way in hell can you even come close to a 1972-D No FG in MS63 for less than $500. 1982 had a very high distribution with only the highest MS grades showing any real value. Typically, MS66 brings more than $100 whereas MS67 can get well into 4 figures without the decimal point. Unknown but finding them in MS is a huge challenge simply because collectors in 1972 simply did not hang on to a coin which looked like it was Circulated which is the case for the 1972-D No FG. There's also the fact that the Kennedy Half was included in the US Mint Uncirculated Sets so even original ROLLS of 1972-D Kennedy's are difficult to locate. Very Few individuals stuck away rolls of CnClad coins simply because, at the time, there was no upside. I would speculate that a Mint Sealed bag of 1972-D Kennedy Half Dollars would bring many, many multiples over face value just for the outside chance than an MS example of the 1972-D No FG might reside inside.[/QUOTE]
